I just installed this version over WDTV's 1.06.42_B on an older WDTV Live Plus machine I got off ebay as a gift and can confirm to anyone interested that it works fine with US Netflix - I'm watching from Canada using a DNS reverse proxy service.

Can someone direct a new wdtv live plus owner to site for a way to get started??? I am not very computer knowledgeble i have one wtvl plus i have used for netfix and one i bouht on ebay that has some upgrades but someHow they do not seem to work??lol netflix works but says unable to reach internet connection when i tried access to 1channel???

Can anyone confirm if this firmware supports the Slingplayer app? I was using an older version of the WDLXTV-PLUS FW on a WDTV Live Plus and the streaming quality improved greatly. I'd like to upgrade to the latest version but I got a new slingplayer and would like to use the WDTV Live Plus to sling my direcTV receiver to a different tv in my house. I guess on this note, does anyone know if Slingplayer is even supported on the Plus?? Thanks.

EDIT: Nevermind. Looks like I need a WDTV Live instead of a Plus model to use Slingplayer.
